MikeD Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 I believe they are re staging them today or tomorrow. Cadets last night were very very strong and improved. As others have mentioned in the show thread, the bass was turned up way too loud on the amp, which was odd considering at the ensemble the night before balance was perfect. I realize it is set different with a full stadium vs. empty metal bleachers - but that covered up the brass a bit too much for my taste. Guard was incredible. Drums were incredible. They do have a lot more cleaning and tweaking to do - I would imagine after laundry tonight they'll be in full out mode through Prelims. Some feet sound in the brass during a few passages, etc held back the brass score I would think. Long stretches of greatness with a bit of short nasty moments when they were hauling. Last year their sound balance was good when I saw them, even at rehearsal. One of their college-aged sound techs was a former student of mine. I don't know if he came back. He actually is majoring in music technology in college (and is the absolute finest mallet player I ever saw at our HS...he could play anything I threw at him). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeD Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 There are a row of mics for the horn feature - every 4 horns or so... those would need moved to the right of the pit and the horns onto the front of the field. But then the flag/rifle feature would need moved as well (and I think it should be) - but then would something else need moved, lol, a bit of a ricochet type event ah...that does make it tough. Maybe three or four steps over the sideline might be possible with minimal impact visually on the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xandandl Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Does anyone know where Cadets are actually rehearsing on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday? Information is blank on their website so far. don't know but usually it's the Liberty high school stadium in Bethlehem. I know they will be sleeping at Cedar Crest College in Allentown but NOT practicing there. Weather for Saturday day is looking wet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckeye_85 Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) LOL! No. No. I have no inside information. It was just a thought. I am guessing my thought holds no water. Edited August 3, 2016 by Buckeye_85 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
